BREAKING NEWS – Chicago, Illinois – Four Cook County Assistant State’s Attorneys (ASAs) recently resigned from Kim Foxx’s Felony Review Unit — three of whom quit on the same day — all within the past two weeks.
The resignations came about three months after a 25-year veteran Illinois prosecutor took aim at Foxx’s policies in a public resignation letter published in July.
“They can all leave!” Foxx said out of frustration. “They are quitting because they reject my policy of not locking up violent criminals, because they may corrupt the peaceful criminals already in jail that are trying to turn their lives around!”
